Pulse profiles of accreting neutron stars - A review of analysis methods, observations, and theoretical models
Katja Pottschmidt, Peter Kretschmar, Ekaterina Sokolova-Lapa +25
X-ray pulsars are highly magnetized ( G) neutron stars accreting from a donor star. Their characteristic X-ray emission arises from accreted material decelerated fro…
The low luminosity end of Galactic HMXBs with eROSITA: Establishing a luminosity floor for accreting BeXRBs
Aafia Zainab, Philipp Thalhammer, Nico Zalot +18
We present a first look at the Galactic population of heretofore known HMXBs as observed by SRG/eROSITA during its first four surveys. eROSITA's sensitivity of $\sim10^{-13}\,\math…
Multi-mission Investigation of X-ray Superorbital Modulation in the Supergiant High Mass X-ray Binary 4U 1538-52
H. I. Cohen, N. Islam, R. H. D. Corbet +7
Superorbital modulations has been detected in the supergiant High-Mass X-ray binary 4U 1538-52 using long-term monitoring with the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Burst Alert Telesc…
XMM-Newton Observations of Flares and a Possible Pulse Dropout in the Supergiant X-ray binary 4U 1909+07
Joel B. Coley, Ralf Ballhausen, McKinley Brumback +9
We report on a pair of X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) observations of the Supergiant X-ray binary 4U 1909+07, which were performed on 2021 October 3 and 2021 October 8, re…
Unveiling the X-ray properties of the eclipsing Cataclysmic Variable UU Aqr: spatially and spectrally-resolved two-component emission
Nazma Islam, Koji Mukai, Maurice A. Leutenegger +1
Non-magnetic Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) show two distinct X-ray components: a hard, optically thin component and a soft, optically thick, blackbody-like component, both produced i…
Orbital Phase-resolved Analysis of X-ray and Gamma-ray Observations of the High-Mass Gamma-ray Binary 4FGL J1405.1-6119
Alexander Lange, Robin H. D. Corbet, Joel B. Coley +4
We present the results of multi-wavelength observations of the High-Mass Gamma-Ray Binary 4FGL J1405.1-6119. A pair of joint XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observations taken in 2019 (sampl…
Swift/XRT monitoring of the orbital and superorbital modulations in 4U 1909+07
P. Romano, H. I. Cohen, E. Bozzo +5
We report on an observational campaign performed with Swift/XRT on the wind-fed supergiant X-ray binary 4U 1909+07 to investigate the nature of the orbital and superorbital modulat…
An X-ray view of the Cataclysmic Variable V902 Mon: Discovery of an X-ray eclipse
Nazma Islam, Koji Mukai
V902 Mon is one of a few eclipsing Intermediate Polars (IPs), and show deep eclipses in the optical lightcurves. The presence of a strong Fe K fluorescence line in its X-ray spe…
Multiwavelength study of 1eRASS J085039.9-421151 with eROSITA NuSTAR and X-shooter
Aafia Zainab, Artur Avakyan, Victor Doroshenko +23
The eROSITA instrument on board Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma has completed four scans of the X-ray sky, leading to the detection of almost one million X-ray sources in eRASS1 only, incl…
Sharp Periodic Flares and Long-Term Variability in the High-Mass X-ray Binary XTE J1829-098 from RXTE PCA, Swift BAT and MAXI Observations
Robin H. D. Corbet, Ralf Ballhausen, Peter A. Becker +20
XTE J1829-098 is a transient X-ray pulsar with a period of ~7.8 s. It is a candidate Be star system, although the evidence for this is not yet definitive. We investigated the twent…
Swift/XRT observations of superorbital modulations in wind-fed supergiant X-ray binaries
P. Romano, E. Bozzo, N. Islam +1
We present the first Swift/XRT long-term monitoring of 2S 0114+650, a wind-fed supergiant X-ray binary for which both orbital and superorbital periods are known (P_orb~11.6d and P_…
X-rays from RS Ophiuchi's 2021 eruption: shocks in and out of ionization equilibrium
Nazma Islam, Koji Mukai, Jennifer L. Sokoloski
The recurrent nova RS Ophiuchi (RS Oph) underwent its most recent eruption on 8 August 2021 and became the first nova to produce both detectable GeV and TeV emission. We used exten…
